Background and approach

Clare uses a pluralistic, person-centred style that draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, attachment-informed ideas, mindfulness, and narrative thinking. Sessions focus on practical steps and clearer thinking rather than jargon. Common concerns she helps people with include stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, self-esteem problems, grief, trauma and abuse, and issues around parenting and caregiving.

Clare also works with matters such as addictions, ADHD, career changes, and compassion fatigue. Her practice can help people manage life transitions and rebuild a sense of purpose. Clare offers weekday and evening slots and some weekend mornings.

Appointments are available by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. Fees vary by location and use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, a prospective client completes a short matching questionnaire via the Start Therapy button and then schedules sessions according to the therapist's availability.

Clare talks in plain language and aims to create a steady, respectful space to think things through together.

Approaches you can use online

Clare works with approaches that translate well to online sessions and aim to make therapy practical. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing difficult thoughts and feelings, then choosing actions that align with your values; it can help when anxiety or avoidance get in the way of living the life you want. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns in close relationships and how early bonds influence current reactions, which can be useful for relationship worries and feelings of abandonment. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and help manage stress and overwhelm.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Clare treats the choice as collaborative and will suggest methods based on your goals, preferences and what feels most helpful. She adapts techniques over time, checking in to see what is working and what needs change so the plan stays relevant.

Online therapy lets people access regular support without the need to travel. Video calls are good for face-to-face conversation and reading body language, phone sessions suit those who prefer not to be on camera, live chat can work for brief check-ins, and text messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These formats provide flexibility to fit sessions around work, caregiving and other commitments.
